There are a number of on-line dictionaries that work pretty well and are free,
though they all have their downsides. One that my colleagues and our more
advanced students use is called MultiTran: http://www.multitran.ru. It's most
usable for people who already know a decent amount of Russian, since there are a
number of variants to sift through. It also provides information on inflection.
Though not a dictionary proper, I've found that Google translate yields decent
results: http://translate.google.com/#.
As for a Russian-English dictionary to purchase, I'd recommend Abby Lingvo.
I believe Microsoft has a Russian spellchecker, but it--surprise--must be
purchased.
As for shareware spellcheckers, good luck--if you find anything, please share
with the list!

One of my faculty is interested in finding (for free) or purchasing both
a good digital russian-english dictionary and a spell checker. Any
suggestions?
